Phosphatidylethanolamine Ab
Active
Description
Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) autoantibodies are a type of anti-phospholipid antibody. High levels of anti-phospholipid antibodies are found in patients with autoimmune disorders [i.e., Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)] and non-autoimmune diseases. Patients with these antibodies may have anti-phospholipid syndrome. Anti-phospholipid antibodies are associated with increased risk for recurrent thrombotic events, thrombocytopenia, endocarditis, stroke, heart attack, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and fetal loss. Antibodies to superficial cellular phospholipids [i.e., antiphosphatidylserine (aPS) and antiphosphatidylethanolamine (aPE)] are common, and when present alone are not likely to be associated with systemic disease, but may still be associated with fertility defects affecting implantation and early pregnancy. The IgM isotype is rarely associated with thrombosis, but is more commonly found in patients with infectious diseases, neurological conditions (i.e., MS), or autoimmune polyneuropathy.
